British Empire

The British Empire comprised the dominions, colonies, protectorates, mandates and other territories ruled or administered by the United Kingdom. It originated with the overseas possessions and trading posts established by England between the late 16th and early 18th centuries. At its height, it was the largest empire in history and, for over a century, was the foremost global power. By 1922 the British Empire held sway over about 458 million people, one-fifth of the world's population at the time, and covered more than 13,000,000sqmi (33,670,000km2), almost a quarter of the Earth's total land area. As a result, its political, legal, linguistic and cultural legacy is widespread. At the peak of its power, the phrase "the empire on which the sun never sets" was often used to describe the British Empire, because its expanse around the globe meant that the sun was always shining on at least one of its territories.

During the Age of Discovery in the 15th and 16th centuries, Portugal and Spain pioneered European exploration of the globe, and in the process established large overseas empires. Envious of the great wealth these empires generated, England, France, and the Netherlands began to establish colonies and trade networks of their own in the Americas and Asia. A series of wars in the 17th and 18th centuries with the Netherlands and France left England (and then, following union between England and Scotland in 1707, Great Britain) the dominant colonial power in North America and India.

Aside from the more formal usage, the term "empire" can also be used to refer to a large-scale business enterprise (e.g. a transnational corporation), a political organisation controlled by a single individual (a political boss) or a group (political bosses). The term "empire" is associated with other words such as imperialism, colonialism, and globalization. Empire is often used to describe a displeasure to overpowering situations. The effects of imperialism exist throughout the world today.

An imperial political structure can be established and maintained in two ways: (i) as a territorial empire of direct conquest and control with force or (ii) as a coercive, hegemonic empire of indirect conquest and control with power. The former method provides greater tribute and direct political control, yet limits further expansion because it absorbs military forces to fixed garrisons. The latter method provides less tribute and indirect control, but avails military forces for further expansion. Territorial empires (e.g., the Mongol Empire and Median Empire) tend to be contiguous areas. The term, on occasion, has been applied to maritime empires or thalassocracies, (e.g., the Athenian and British empires) with looser structures and more scattered territories. Empires are usually larger than kingdoms.

20th century

The 20th century was a century that began on
January 1, 1901 and ended on December 31, 2000. It was the tenth and final century of the 2nd millennium. It is distinct from the century known as the 1900s (sometimes written as 19XX), which began on January 1, 1900 and ended on December 31, 1999.

Overview

The century had the first global-scale total wars between world powers across continents and oceans in World War I and World War II. Nationalism became a major political issue in the world in the 20th century, acknowledged in international law along with the right of nations to self-determination, official decolonization in the mid-century, and nationalist-influenced armed regional-conflicts.

British had started their colonial conquest in late 16th century and continued it well into the 20th century. By the year 1922, Britain had colonies on every continent of the world. Britain had dominion over 458 million people which at that time was the one fifth of the global population at that time. Total area under the rule of British was 33,700,000 square kms, approximately a quarter of earths total land area.

The Jewel had started to crack at the edges.

The British Grenadiers Song (With lyric annotations)

------Played by U.S. Army Strings-------
I hate how my country (USA) hogs all the glory. I truly believe, for several reasons, that Great Britain is the best country Earth has to offer.
This is my third video honouring the British. My newest one can be viewed here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHNfvJc99YY
This song is called "The British Grenadiers," the words are:
Some talk of Alexander, and some of Hercules
Of Hector and Lysander, and such great names as these.
But of all the world's brave heroes, there's none that can compare.
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, to the British Grenadiers.
Whene'er we are commanded to storm the palisades,
Our leaders march with fusees, and we with hand grenades.
We throw them from the glacis, about the enemies' ears.
With a tow, ro...

Then let us fill a bumper, and drink a health of those
Who carry caps and pouches, and wear the loupèd clothes.
May they and their commanders live happy all their years.
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, to the British Grenadiers.
Would everybody please cease the political conversations?
Muslim this, immigration that, Germans, too? A little irrelevant, isn't it? It is not what this video is all about.
Featured video comment: I agree﻿ with the author with all this racist talk, its a video about a song, not radical thinking, if you want to be all racist and neo-nazist, go to the BNP website and stay there.

For the most part of 19th and 20th Century, there was little doubt that the most powerful colonial empire of all was the British Empire.

Britain had dominion over 458 million people which at that time was the one fifth of the global population at that time. Total area under the rule of British was 33,700,000 square kms, approximately a quarter of earths total land area. Such was the prowess of the British empire that it was said that sun never sets in British empire, when one part of the British empire was engulfed in darkness of the night, it would be day in some other British colony.
The Jewel in the British Crown, India was the empire's most cherished and most valuable colony. On surface everything looke like it had always looked. Colonial masters were still as colonial as ever and their Indian subjects still as loyal as ever. But after, 200 years of oppression, segregation and discrimination, crack have started to appear. The Jewel had started to crack at the edges.
This three episode series focuses on the three distinct time periods of transformation of British Empire during the 21st Century

The British Grenadiers Song (With lyric annotations)

------Played by U.S. Army Strings-------
I hate how my country (USA) hogs all the glory. I truly believe, for several reasons, that Great Britain is the best country Earth has to offer.
This is my third video honouring the British. My newest one can be viewed here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHNfvJc99YY
This song is called "The British Grenadiers," the words are:
Some talk of Alexander, and some of Hercules
Of Hector and Lysander, and such great names as these.
But of all the world's brave heroes, there's none that can compare.
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, to the British Grenadiers.
Whene'er we are commanded to storm the palisades,
Our leaders march with fusees, and we with hand grenades.
We throw them from the glacis, about the enemies' ears.
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, to the British Grenadiers.
Then let us fill a bumper, and drink a health of those
Who carry caps and pouches, and wear the loupèd clothes.
May they and their commanders live happy all their years.
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, to the British Grenadiers.
Would everybody please cease the political conversations?
Muslim this, immigration that, Germans, too? A little irrelevant, isn't it? It is not what this video is all about.
Featured video comment: I agree﻿ with the author with all this racist talk, its a video about a song, not radical thinking, if you want to be all racist and neo-nazist, go to the BNP website and stay there.
